by Administrator on August 7, 2007

Due to repairs being made to the irrigation system at Glendale, all training sessions for the remainder of the week will be moved to Lake Country. We will meet on the south fields at 5:00pm 6:00pm. All players will need to bring a properly inflated ball, cleats, and training shirt. We will provide plenty of fluids and will alter training if needed with the high heat index.
